Default GREEN HORN HILT / RENTJONG

New in my collection. A rentjong with a green horn hilt.

Are there other forumites with similar green horn hilted weapons ?
(rentjong or others)

Best regards,
Willem

Sure , I've had many over the years..

I can post a Shibria & a kukri, that are both vivid green , tomorrow when I am in daylight for photos.

Goat, Cow, sheep, Buffalo & rhino can all be green on occasion.

I have a keris sheath for a patrem that uses a green horn for the upper part. Very pretty stuff IMO.

Nice hilts on the kukri's.

I made a new picture adding my peurawot which has also a green hilt
Sad enough that is all I have with green horn.

Would like to add a keris hilt maybe one day...

Having a rencong and a peurawot with green hilts is pretty good! Attached is the only green hilt I have.
